Marvel Pulls Punisher

Following the tragic events in Las Vegas, Marvel Studios announced they were pulling the Punisher panel from New York Comic Con. “We are stunned and saddened by this week’s senseless act in Las Vegas,” reads the official statement from the companies. “After careful consideration, Netflix and Marvel have decided it wouldn’t be appropriate for Marvel’s The Punisher to participate in New York Comic Con. Our thoughts continue to be with the victims

It looks like Avengers: Infinity War may be set to add yet another hero to its enormous roster, with rumours surfacing that the character of Cindy Moon – a.k.a. Silk – could be set to feature in next year’s Marvel superhero blockbuster.

Avengers: Infinity War finished shooting over the summer and it's already set to be the biggest superhero cast in history, but did IMDb just leak yet another character to show up in the fight against Thanos? Avengers 4 is currently filming in Atlanta, but why would there be an addition to the IMDb page for Infinity War? It seemed suspect at first because users can go in and edit the popular site, but the rumor has started to pick up traction since the official Twitter account for IMDb announced the news.

According to the popular movie site, Spider-Man: Homecoming actress Tiffany Espensen has been added to the cast of Avengers: Infinity War. Espensen played a minor character in Homecoming as Cindy, a member of Peter Parker's academic decathlon team at the Midtown School of Science and Technology. This may seem to be a casting of little significance, but it has red

We’ve known for a long time now that Avengers: Infinity War would feature a whopping 67 significant characters, but apparently, the movie still has room for one more hero from Marvel’s back catalogue. That’s because new evidence suggests that another web-slinging ally of Spider-Man’s will put in an appearance at some point.

This rumor gained traction after IMDb’s Twitter account shared a run-through of Tiffany Espensen’s filmography, which revealed that her credits had been updated with an appearance in Infinity War. Fans might remember that the young actress previously appeared in Spider-Man: Homecoming as one of Peter Parker’s classmates. She was listed as playing Cindy, a name which caught the attention of comic book readers.

In recent time, it’s been revealed that Peter’s former classmate Cindy Moon was also bitten by the same spider that got Peter, leaving her with similar powers.

Everyone’s favourite neighbourhood Spider-Man will be making his way onto home video soon. Spider-Man: Homecoming will be getting a digital release on September 26th before its release on 4K, Blu-ray 3D, Blu-ray and DVD on October 17th, and Sony has announced the special features that will come with the various releases.

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming featured a nice little Easter egg for fans of Miles Morales, as Donald Glover’s Aaron Davis reveals to Tom Holland’s Spider-Man that he had a nephew living in the city. However, a deleted scene has surfaced online which features a much less subtle reference, with Aaron name-dropping Miles as he speaks to him on the phone whilst still webbed to his car following his earlier encounter with the wall-crawler. Take a look here…

Thrilled by his experience with the Avengers, Peter returns home, where he lives with his Aunt May (Marisa Tomei), under the watchful eye of his new mentor Tony Stark (Robert Downey, Jr.). Peter tries to fall back into his normal daily routine – distracted by thoughts of proving himself to be more than just your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man – but when the Vulture (Michael Keaton) emerges as a new villain, everything that Peter holds most important will be threatened.

Earlier this month, Sony and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming became the highest-grossing reboot of all time, thanks in no small part to its solid opening in China, and now the film has overtaken Wonder Woman and Guardians of the Galaxy to become the biggest superhero movie of the year so far.

Spurred on by an impressive $70.8 million opening weekend in China – the third-biggest for a superhero movie – Spider-Man: Homecoming has pushed its global haul to $822.8 million today, surpassing fellow superhero blockbuster Wonder Woman, which has earned $816.3 million to date.

Homecoming has now passed the $821 million grossed by Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man back in 2002, making it the wall-crawler’s second-highest grossing solo movie behind Spider-Man 3 on $890.9 million – a figure that it may well reach depending on its legs in China. It is also the sixth-biggest film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe behind this year’s Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2.

Spider-Man: Homecoming finally made its way to China this weekend, where the Marvel and Sony-produced reboot is looking at an opening weekend of around $70 million, helping to make it the highest-grossing reboot of all time. To promote its release in the Middle Kingdom, a new poster has arrived online featuring Spidey, The Vulture and Iron Man; check it out here…

Diamond Comic Distributors and Beast Kingdom have revealed two new Previews exclusive figures from the Sony/Marvel blockbuster Spider-Man: Homecoming which includes a 12 inch Spidey diorama in his homemade suit, and a six inch figure of the webslinger which comes with several interchangeable pieces; take a look at the official promotional images here…

The Spider-Man Homecoming diorama figure is a stunning new 12 1/2” tall, featuring Peter Parker in his homemade suit. With careful attention to detail, the figure also includes character specific details such as a newspaper and Spidey’s backpack. The action figure is a stunning take on Peter wearing the Spider-Man suit gifted to him by Tony Stark. Standing 6” tall, the figure features raised spider web detailing on the suit, 8 interchangeable hands, and over 30 points of articulation to create the perfect Peter pose.

Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming finally made its way to the Middle Kingdom this weekend, with the Sony and Marvel produced reboot enjoying a solid $22.2 million opening day, with a further $1.5 million in Friday previews. The wall-crawler’s solo McU debut has now amassed a worldwide haul of $770 million, making it the highest-grossing reboot of all time – a record previously held by 2012’s The Amazing Spider-Man on $757 million.

According to projections from Forbes, Homecoming will likely pass $800 million globally this weekend thanks to its debut in China, and could potentially reach as high as $880 million – which would put it ahead of Wonder Woman ($814 million) and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 ($863 million) to make it the biggest superhero movie of the year so far. However, to become the highest-grossing entry in the Spider-Man franchise it would need to shift a few more tickets however, with 2007’s Spider-Man 3 sitting on $891 million.

Homecoming may have debuted number one by box office takings, bringing in $4.1 million to Despicable Me 3‘s $3.7 million, but Japan ranks its box office by admissions, not money earned.

Debuting last weekend, Homecoming had 290,000 admissions which is below Despicable Me’s 328,000. And considering Despicable Me 3 is in its fourth weekend, this isn’t the result Spider-Man would have hoped for.

This was, however, 7% better than The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which finished its Japanese run with $28.7 million (not accounting for

One of the best posters to come out for Spider-Man: Homecoming was the laziest one: A sleeping Spider-Man, clad in school jacket, with headphones on. The poster encapsulates everything that makes this Spider-Man different from the previous incarnations. It was perfect.

What you may not have known is that the poster is all just the result of a very tired Tom Holland. An Instagram user going by the name of therealspideyman posted an interview clip where Tom Holland reveals the true origin of the poster.

“Interesting story about that poster is that is actually me asleep,” said Holland. “That’s not part of the movie, that’s me in-between takes asleep. We were shooting this scene and I was just really tired that day, and I was just asleep on the floor, and the photographer took a picture. So when they made that the poster, I was like ‘What! What the hell,

If you were around any group of people talking comic book movies back between 2010-2014, then you probably heard at least one person passionately arguing that Donald Glover (Atlanta, Community) should play Miles Morales (another Spider-Man in the Marvel Universe) in a live-action Spider-Man film. This all began when Glover himself was campaigning to play the web-slinger prior to Marc Webb’s reboot The Amazing Spider-Man starring Andrew Garfield. Since then, obviously, the web-slinger has been loaned back over to Marvel, and we have a shiny new Spidey in the form of Tom Holland.
